SWISSMAX 400

AUTOMATIC HARDNESS TESTER

The SWISSMAX SM-400 is a robust, universal hardness tester engineered for general workshops, schools, and training centres.
It offers full flexibility to perform hardness tests across all common scales—Rockwell, Superficial Rockwell, Vickers, Knoop, Brinell and Shore—using test loads from 1 kgf up to 250 kgf.

  • Rockwell & Superficial Rockwell
    Depth indentation measured with a high-precision linear gauge.
  • Vickers & Brinell
    Optical measurements via a high-quality microscope with
    electronic eyepiece/readout and interchangeable objectives.
  • Instant Results
    All measurements are displayed automatically at the touch of a button on the full-colour industrial touch screen.
